Abstract

The electrochromic anti-glare mirror (10) includes an electrochromic layer which is provided at a rear surface side of a substrate glass (14), and in which an electrochromic film (18) is nipped between a transparent conductive film (16) and a reflective conductive film (20). By energizing the electrochromic film (18) between the transparent conductive film (16) and reflective conductive film (20), the electrochromic film (18) is electrically made to color. Wires for electrochromic anti-glare (10) for energizing the electrochromic film between the transparent conductive film and the reflective conductive film are printed on the printed circuit board.
